"Enough" Ashinasimo's voice made Jieli's face even more ugly.
"Is Tuli stupid, he didn't even see Ben Khan's messenger, did he want to take advantage of Ben Khan's energy to focus on the Central Plains people, and shoot behind his back, Tuli That old guy is too naïve, does he really think that the Central Plains people will stop if they defeat Ben Khan?"
Jieli suddenly overturned the desk in the big tent, his face was gloomy and purple, and his beard stood up like steel needles, and roared loudly.
"Great Khan, Ashina Helu's army of 30,000 was scattered, when the last general took the rest of the soldiers to find Ashina Helu to borrow troops, he was leading troops to engage with the Tuli army, but suddenly a Han army appeared, under the attack on both sides, Ashina Helu was defeated like a mountain, and fled west with the remnants of the army" Zhiya Sili shook his head bitterly and said.
"Could it be that Helan Mountain, they entered the grassland from the pass of Helan Mountain, and the Han people would have so much courage, Kang Sumi, isn't he with you, where did he go, did he die in the chaos?"
Jieli's face changed greatly, and he said.
"Kang Sumi, he surrendered to the Han people, he returned to the royal court, and took Empress Xiao and her grandson Yang Zhengdao hostage and surrendered to the Han army, and now the Han people have a force in front of the Tuli royal court, even if we want to send an envoy, we can't break through this layer of defense."
"Ben Khan's royal court is in danger," Jieli's face suddenly changed drastically.
"The royal court is still guarded by 30,000 troops, and in the depths of the grassland, there is no big problem for the time being, Kang Sumi was able to rob Queen Xiao because of his identity, and the royal court does not have to worry for the time being."
Zhiya Sili hurriedly explained.
Zhi Ya Sili cried with a sad face, and every word he said was a thunderbolt from the sky, but this information had to be said.
Zhi Ya Sili even has a feeling that as long as he speaks again, he is afraid that he will be hacked to death by Jieli directly, and it is too sad to do so as a leading general.
"Great Khan, in this way, we are completely surrounded, what now" Ashina Simo's face was also gloomy, even he, the first Turkic general, felt tremendous pressure at this moment.
"Hold on to your thoughts, tell me everything you know, what else" Jieli's gloomy face seemed to be dripping, and the voice squeezed out of his throat, Zhiya Sili and Ashina Simo trembled in their hearts, knowing that Jieli had reached the limit of patience.
"Great Khan, a large number of Han soldiers are also stationed in the Yanyun region in the east, and now only the direction of the west is still unblocked."
"Hmph, Ben Khan would rather die than flee to the west with his tail between his legs, and immediately send people to inform the various tribes and gather the rest of the team.
Jieli turned around abruptly and roared at Zhiya Sili.
In the next moment, a sentry ran into the tent and fell to his knees with a thud.
"Khan, the enemy army has made a big move, maybe it is about to start a forced attack on the Evil Sun Ridge" Helan Mountain, since Ashina Helu fled with the remnants of the army and the plague was extinguished, the passes and Yinchuan of Helan Mountain also recovered their corresponding military strength.
It's just that the pain and damage caused by war is not easy to recover.
A large number of civilians were killed, and the labor force was weakened to an all-time low, and in addition to busy farming and hunting, the only remaining labor force was requisitioned by the imperial court to rebuild the capital city.
Helan Mountain is very extensive, and although it is extremely dangerous, there are some relatively safe places.
Deep in Helan Mountain, there is a gentle terrain, far from Yu Wenzhe's hut, surrounded by a huge canyon, a small isolated village, nestled in the canyon. is like the peach blossom source in Tao Yuanming's heart, which is indisputable and isolated from the world.
On the village road, a fat middle-aged fat man, holding a bag of medicinal herbs in his hand, was walking anxiously on the road, his fat body was very agile, and there was a layer of fine beads of sweat on his forehead in the cold winter, and he kept wiping it with his sleeve.
"Yo, Brother Song, I'm going to the village chief's house to get the medicine again."
Turning a corner, a peasant woman carried a basket made of willow branches, the basket kept steaming, and under the basket, due to the flow of water droplets, several ice cubes were formed, making the basket look heavy.
"It's the sister-in-law of the Tian family, this winter is exceptionally cold, and my wife's leg injury is not good, so I can't stand the pain."
The middle-aged fat man lifted the medicinal herbs in his hand and sighed.
"Hehe, your wife is from a rich and noble family, all because of the hateful Turks, otherwise how could they be left in the mountains to suffer, my child caught some fish in the stream at the east end of the village, and took them to make up for your wife's body."
The peasant woman stuffed the basket into the middle-aged fat man's hand, and before the fat man refused, she ran into the village at a trot.
"Alas, it's been almost four years, and I don't know what's going on out there" The fat man sighed, looked at the peasant woman's disappeared back, and shook his head very melancholy.
There are forty or fifty families in the whole village, who originally moved in to escape the war at the end of the Sui Dynasty.
It has been more than 20 years now, and only two years ago, the boy of the village chief's family went out and has not come back until now.
At the westernmost end of the village, there is a dilapidated thatched hut that is some distance from the houses in the village.
The fat man returned to the thatched hut with herbs and basket in his hand, and got busy in the outer room.
Until the herbs were put on the stove to be tormented, as time passed, the smell of the medicine overflowed.
Then out of the inner room came a woman, dressed in coarse linen and with a somewhat pale face, holding on to the edge of the door, and staggering to the outer room.
"Madam, why are you up, the medicine hasn't been fried yet, these are the fish sent by Sister-in-law Tian, just to replenish your body" The fat man looked at the woman's face and looked a little worried.
"It's okay, lie in bed all day, and if you're not sick, you're going to lie out sick."
The woman shook her head, her expression a little lonely, and the whole person looked lifeless.
Just as she shook her head, a large scar appeared on the collar of her coat, apparently from the burns of the fire.
"Okay, the villain will cook the fish for you first" As he spoke, the fat man took out the fish from the basket, scraped the scales neatly, took out the internal organs, and put them in a large pot to boil.
The fire rose in the room, and there was a hint of warmth, and the lady's face looked a little better.
After half an hour, the smell of the medicine became more intense, and the aroma of the fish wafted out, and the fat man twitched his nose, smiled, and lifted the lid on the stove.
"Brother Song, go and take a look, the kid from the village chief's family came back outside, and he also brought back an adult in an official uniform, saying that the war has long been over" At this moment, there was a knock on the door in the courtyard, and the voice of Hetian's sister-in-law.

The middle-aged fat man's hand trembled, the lid of the pot fell, and it fell on the stove with a bang.
"Madam, look" The middle-aged fat man raised his head suddenly, his eyes revealing irrepressible excitement.
"Let's go" The woman turned her back to the fat man, her voice trembling a little, and her expression even more sad.
"Hey, I'll be back soon" The middle-aged fat man was too excited to notice the woman's emotions, so he hurriedly extinguished the flame in the stove and ran out quickly.
Sister-in-law Tian was still waiting outside, and when she saw the figure of the middle-aged fat man, she immediately laughed excitedly, "Brother Song, now that our Datang is fighting back against the Turks, we may be able to go back, it's been four years, our Lao Tian may think that my mother and son are dead."
"Let's go" The middle-aged fat man nodded in agreement, and the two ran towards the village chief's house together.
The village chief's house is in the center of the village, and the village chief is also the only doctor in the village, and he is very respected.
In the courtyard of the village chief's house, there are more than a dozen officials wearing yamen official uniforms, and the village chief is carefully accompanying them.
"Old man, it's really hard to find you here, if it weren't for your kid to lead the way, no one would be able to find it, gather all the prime people in the village, you were all recruited" A frivolous looking official said impatiently.
"This official, our village moved here twenty years ago, and no one is willing to go out."
The village chief pleaded.
"If you refuse to go out, do you know what your son has done outside, if you hadn't brought us here, you would have been beheaded."
The young servant had a grim look.
"You bastard, you have to get out, what kind of sin are you doing?"
The village chief threw a stick at a young man squatting in the corner, and the young man kept dodging.
"Dad, I was wronged, they robbed Brother Song of the silver given to me, and accused me of stealing it, and wanted to kill my head, I had no choice, so I brought them back" "Fart, you bastard, you have thousands of taels of silver tickets on you, you either steal or rob them, will this official still lie to you, where is Brother Song you said, make it up yourself" At this moment, the middle-aged fat man and Sister-in-law Tian walked into the courtyard, "Village chief, this is" "Hey, here's one, take it" The young official looked at the middle-aged fat man, his eyes lit up, and the official behind him suddenly rushed forward, and the long knife came out of the sheath and rested on the neck of the middle-aged fat man.
"Okay, don't worry about this old guy, just go and arrest people, these guys who don't have household registration, they will be arrested" "Hahaha, that's right, so many strong men, Yuan Gongzi, now you are expected to be promoted" The middle-aged fat man felt the coldness on his neck, there was no panic in his eyes, and he waved his hand at Sister-in-law Tian very calmly, "Sister-in-law, they just want to catch the strong man, you go back quickly, my wife will please you, and when my young master Zhe finds it, he will definitely repay you."
"Okay, I'll take care of your wife, you have to come back early" The sister-in-law hesitated and left the sight of the middle-aged fat man.
"Hmph" the young servant snorted disdainfully, "Forget it, it's just a peasant woman, let her go" ntforiitfreeti0 t1706231537:
